Working Principle

A crystal is a device that consists of a peizo-electric material, such as quartz, that vibrates at a certain frequency when an electric field is applied. The LFXTAL003277BULK is a piezo-electric crystal that operates on the principle of quartz vibration. The quartz crystal is sandwiched between two electrodes and when an electric field is applied, the quartz vibrates at its resonant frequency.

The frequency of a quartz oscillator varies slightly due to temperature changes. The frequency stability of a quartz crystal is determined by the temperature-sensitivity of the crystal, which is measured in ppm/°C. The LFXTAL003277BULK has a temperature coefficient of ±2.0 ppm/°C, which is why it is preferred over other quartz oscillators in many applications.

The LFXTAL003277BULK can be used in combination with temperature compensating circuits to improve its frequency stability, and the crystal can be used in parallel with other crystal in order to provide the desired frequency stability. Additionally, the crystal can be tuned to a specific frequency by adjusting the capacitance of the oscillator circuit.
